Although Wade Schallrs’ time at East Stroudsburg cost him a postseason at Clarion, I don’t believe he ever actually wrestled a match for East Stroudsburg.

This is also kind of true for the VT transfers.  Never wrestled in a VT singlet and didn't use eligibility at VT, but lost eligibility at Iowa.  I think the criteria WKN used was if the transfer cost any eligibility at all they didn't make the squint list.  

In the future there might possibly be an exception named Mitchell Mesenbrink.  He did a redshirt year at Cal Baptist and then transferred to PSU.  He has 4 years to use at PSU, but he actually wrestled in a couple duals for Cal Baptist last year.  The change to the freshman redshirt rules allowed for it.  If he goes on to win a title will WKN put him in the squint list?

Good point. This stuff is messy.

Yes those were the transfers I was talking about.  All those matches were in their redshirt year and would have been unattached.  These are similar to the matches Pucillo wrestled in redshirt.  The VT wrestlers didn't use eligibility that year at VT it was the next year at Iowa where eligibility was used.  Similar to Pucillo at Hofstra.

What's different with Mesenbrink is that he wrestled in two dual at Cal Baptist.  True freshman can now wrestle in 5 events attached.  So those duals count on his official record even though he didn't use any eligibility in wrestling them. Nor at least that's my understanding of the situation.

I tried to find info on that yesterday, I have vague recall that he was a transfer but can't find anything to verify.

Probably. He was class of 91 in HS per Indianamat and MSU lists him as 93-95 on their roster.

If you watch his NCAA finals match (Link) midway through the second period at about 6:40 in the video the broadcast team says he was a junior college champion at Lassen Community College in CA. 

Not sure if he is subject to the same exception at MSU as Williams was at Iowa...

How big of a deal was it when Dave Schultz transferred from Oklahoma State to Oklahoma back in the day? 

He transferred to UCLA first, then they dropped the program and he and Mark headed to OU.

Was there a particular circumstance that led to him leaving OKSt?

'Dave spent one unhappy year at Oklahoma State, where he tried to cut too much weight, then transferred to UCLA to be with incoming freshman Mark and Horpel, then an assistant coach there.'

A couple things.

1. As to the Brands VTechers- they did use eligibility. Redshirting is part of their eligibility.

2. Maybe someone posted this (I don't feel like searching the lists now) but Rob Rohn Lehigh- transferred from Clarion.

Then the answer to the expanded question, who won and then transferred?

image.png.5bbeb5b1e6498ce95d5f086eee74e27f.png

WKN, here's a fascinating one.  UPenn's Rchard DiBatista won titles in '41 & '42 at 175.  Transferred to Navy and AA'd in '01 '02 at 141.  Snuck into the tournament under the alias Mark Conley. Maybe @cowcards has the back story

That must have been quite a weight pull for a man of that age.

Craig Henning got screwed in the 2007 NCAA Finals.

That is a pretty funny oops. Click on the "Suggest an Edit" button.  I have done this and they are very responsive. That is how the Wade Schalles bio got fixed.
